Rotation the aim for Brentford today – but mindset has to remain strong

Morning campers, how we all doing? Weird one, this one today, innit? I mean, we have ourselves a match day, we have ourselves an Arsenal home game and we have ourselves a pressing need to probably at least win four of our last seven to be assured of the second spot in the Premier League. [...]

Eyes on the ball (and prize) for Arsenal against PSV tonight

Liverpool have been rolling the dice and getting so many sixes this season, that when I went to bed at 10pm with it into extra time, I just expected to find out this morning that they'd won 5-0 on penalties. But they're out, the media fawning over them winning the quadruple that we were witnessing [...]

Arsenal’s ‘nice to have’ game against Preston tonight

It's the first of four away ones tonight and I don't think you'll get many Arsenal fans arguing the toss over this one being the bottom of the pecking order in terms of 'must win' priorities. Preston away and the League Cup is a 'nice to have' and whilst Mikel Arteta was keen to stress [...]

The Saka show silences the Saints

Yesterday's 3-1 against Southampton had a real air of familiarity of it to me, following from last weekend's shenanigans: At home to a newly promoted opponent Expected to win and win comfortably Lovely weather 3pm kick off Opponent scoring and taking maximum chances from their minimum opportunities Arsenal pretty much dominant Late drama There were, [...]

A smattering of first teamers today, but who plays in goal?

Morning folks - here we are at another match day and this time we kick off our League Cup campaign - a home tie against Bolton Wanderers and, I think the key question all of us want answered for this evening's game is: How many first team players are going to be rested tonight? Because [...]

Arteta needs to think carefully about who is risked tomorrow evening

Morning folks, how we all doing this Tuesday? A lot better than 115 Charges FC, it appears, as they now have the utterly scandalous situation of playing Watford this evening at home, just 48 hours after playing us (which they were at home) on Sunday, as well as having played Inter (which was at home) [...]

How much rotation will Arsenal see tonight against Atalanta?

Morning Gooners, hope we're all pumped for the start of our Champions League campaign, eh? Tonight should be an interesting one because we've had one English team nab three points in Italy in the shape of Liverpool at Milan on Tuesday, one Italian team nab a point at the Emptihad against 115 Charges FC last [...]

Meticulous Arteta will have little time for analysis this week

Whilst basking in a North London Derby victory is plenty of fun and I intend on doing it a bit more today, there's no rest for the wicked this week, with Atalanta on Thursday and so probably Mikel and the team leaving for Italy either later today or first thing tomorrow. I wonder if they [...]

Getting subs right in the second half of the season

Morning folks and welcome to Thursday, as we tick ever-closer towards that game against Palace for the 12.30pm kick off on Saturday lunchtime. I'd asked for a marginal gain of Everton and Palace going to extra time last night and whilst it was unfortunate that it never happened, the fact that Palace put out a strong [...]

Arsenal can’t go full ‘Disgrace of Gijon’ tonight, but hopefully not too far off

Here cometh another match day, only this one is a little weirder than they usually are, on account of the outcome of tonight's game meaning LITERALLY nothing to anybody involved in Eindhoven. An Arsenal win keeps us top with 15 points. They stay on eight points and if Lens beat Sevilla at home then they [...]
